noob question: How many kms is too much for a Yaris?

[7:34pm]

WWYWD:

I had to sell all my toys to go back to post secondary Looking for the perfect commuter I did my research and was in a mad hunt for a '07-'09 Yaris (maybe a '94-'97 miata if the right priced one popped up ) because of the exceptional fuel economy and reliability.

My criteria was that it had to be standard and had to be a 3 door hatch with lower mileage I hate high mileage cars, but... I was reading through your forums and saw some people hitting close to 300k-400k miles without any major problems. This opened up my narrow mind to start searching into higher mileage territory.

What I'm really trying to get at is should I be very concerned about buying a higher mileage Yaris? Should I spend the extra $3000 - $5000 for one with less mileage? I read these cars use timing chains instead of belts, so what real major servicing is required? Even if I get a Yaris for cheap and have to replaced the engine in the future from a wrecker etc, it would still end up being cheaper...?

Here is one car I'm considering, it has 135,000 miles, 2007, $4500: http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/nv...223603596.html
